My Review:
I came across the e.l.f. cosmetics brand for the first time during the christmas holiday. I was browsing the cosmetics aisle, and I couldn't help but notice the attractive packaging and the exceptional price of the product. I remembered hearing about e.l.f. in a makeup tutorial on youtube. I felt I had nothing to lose. I wanted to give this brand a try. I have tried many cosmetic brands over the years. Ranging from high to low end. Some of the high end cosmetic brands didn't appeal to me. I purched about $20.00 worth of e.l.f. cosmetics for the first time. I was confident in the product. It was well packaged. It wasn't expensive. It was very affordable. It may have been cheap but it didn't look cheap. I was excited. I took the products home and I tried each and every product out. Some I liked. Some I didn't like. You'll soon discover how I feel about each product in future reviews. Feel free to check out previous reviews in prior posts.
The 'e.l.f. Super Glossy Lip Gloss SPF 15' is a very cute little tube. It was only $1.00 each. I am in love with this gloss. The packaging doesn't look cheap. The tube was completely full of gloss. It smells very sweet. It takes delicious. It's a little sticky but if applied correctly it really is a great product! I purchased five so far. I'm definately going to purchase more. A little goes a long ways. You do not need to squeeze very much out of the tube onto your lips. The color is great. However, as I have said before in previous reviews, e.l.f. cosmetics vary from how they look in the picture to how they really look when you purchase and/or recieve the product in the mail. The actual colors do not always match the colors in the photographs on the Eyes Lips Face website. Please keep that in mind when purchasing the product online. That is why I post the website photo's and the actual photo's taken by myself together on my blog review posts. I want you to be able to get a good look at the actual product before you purchase this product online. Also, I bought the 'Super Glossy Lip Gloss SPF 15' in 'Pink Kiss' twice. After I purchased it the first time, I went back to Target to purchase more e.l.f. cosmetics that I have not tried yet. I noticed the 'Pink Kiss' but forget that I had previously purchased it already. It looked like a totally different color this time. So, I thought I was purchasing a new gloss that I have not already tried and didn't have. It looked like a really pretty peachy coral color. When I got home I noticed that I had already purchased 'Pink Kiss'. I held the two together and compared their color to each other. I was correct, the colors didn't match. The first 'Pink Kiss' I purchased was a deep almost salmon pink. The second 'Pink Kiss' was a peachy coral pink. I assume it was because the mix didn't turn out correctly from the factory? But, I'm not disappointed. I like the peachy pink better! I wear the "Super Glossy Lip Gloss SPF 15' more than any other lip product I own. I especially love that my lips are protected by the SPF 15 from the sun. This will be a great lip product to wear during the summer!
